      As Financial Advisor and Senior Vice President – Wealth Management with UBS Financial Services Inc, Amy Oliver provides comprehensive wealth management for individuals and their families. For more than 22 years, Amy has focused on assisting clients across a broad spectrum of issues including financial and income taxation planning strategies, transfers of wealth and guidance on how to achieve philanthropic aspirations.

      In 2009, Amy partnered with Grant Matthews and the Matthews Group at Morgan Stanley. With a combined 41 years of financial advisory experience we strive to deliver a more comprehensive wealth management advice to each of our high net worth clients. In addition to investment management, our team advises clients on financial planning, wealth transfer(s), philanthropy, income taxation planning, stock options, business succession planning, lending solutions, and risk management.

      Personal Interests and Education:

      As a native of Kansas, Amy grew up in a small farm town. From moving bales of hay at age 10 and learning to drive at 11, she quickly learned the importance and responsibility that comes with hard work. These early lessons also gave Amy the tools to put herself through college by working nights and weekends, in an emergency room, in downtown Chicago.

      From these experiences she developed one of her biggest goals in life:

      “To give back as opportunities arise.”

      One of these opportunities came in 2014 when she joined the Ronald McDonald, San Francisco Board and became the President of the Board in 2017. Shortly thereafter, in 2017, Amy led the merger with Stanford House, to become the Ronald McDonald House Charities - Bay Area. Currently she is honored to hold the position of Immediate Past President of the Board.

      Amy is a graduate of Loyola University Chicago. Currently she lives in Menlo Park and enjoy playing golf and riding horses.
